James Joyce quote (for Siobhan Clancy)
"I will not serve that in which I no longer believe, whether it call itself my home, my fatherland, or my church: and I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can, using for my defense the only arms I allow myself to use-- silence, exile and cunning."

--A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

Merry Christmas all, and let's rock the world in 2004.

2. Maybe I'll get three more cats
and call them Silence, Exile, and Cunning. They'd all be really good cat names.

3. That book has one of my all time favorite quotes
which is when Stephen Daedelus says that "history is the nightmare from which I am trying to awake"
